Due to lots of extra searchbar they blast through searchbar snow and have really solid edges for sliding searchbars. They're stiff like a searchbar and about as heavy as two searchbars.

I love my karmas. They are definitely an all mountain ski and will allow you to do anything in the park. I can't stand too much butter with my skis. I come from a technical racing background so not being able to carve would drive me nuts. The karmas kick ass all around.

Ehh, I tried my friends Karmas (last years, but still new this season), and I really didn't like them. They washed out a lot when I was carving, and they felt a little bit like I was riding on sandpaper.

It took me a couple days to get use to them in the park. I was coming off of candide's pros and they are pretty stiff as well, just a ton narrower. I love them for all mountain, they tear through pow like it's job. I have them mounted rather far back though so that prob makes a big difference too.

They are the fucking ill shit. Buyem and dont think about it. If you like to ski and not just chill in the park they fucking rock socks. There made sandwich constructoin so there a whole lot more supple than some salamon or k2s. There super good allround
